Despite this short-term downturn, the token remains resilient, demonstrating a remarkable 56.6% increase over the past year.

Investors’ eyes are fixed on spot Ethereum ETFs and how products could perform in the opening months after Bitcoin funds were hugely successful. On Tuesday, the first nine U.S. spot Ethereum (ETH) ETFs opened for trading on national exchanges following the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) final greenlight. Wall Street players and retail investors can now access exposure to crypto’s second-largest decentralized token, ETH, via a regulated institutional wrapper. According to Bloomberg’s James Seyffart, the funds debuted with nearly $10.3 billion in assets under management (AUM). Most of that money is domiciled in two Grayscale products, one of which is…
Bitcoin fell below $60,000 amid heavy selling pressure, reaching a recent low of around $57,800. The sell-off triggered over $77 million in Bitcoin long liquidations across centralized exchanges in the past 24 hours, contributing to a total of $295 million in market-wide liquidations. The broader crypto market experienced substantial losses, with ether, the second-largest cryptocurrency, facing over $71 million in liquidations, of which $62 million were long positions. Solana’s SOL and Dogecoin (DOGE) led losses among major tokens. Fears of looming selling pressure from the defunct Mt. Gox exchange and possible miner sales contributed to the market decline. Mt. Gox…

Ethereum (ETH) is up 25% in 15 days, and it could be just the beginning of a massive bull run as it consolidates as the “second best” cryptocurrency. Analysts believe the spot Ethereum ETFs have fueled this performance, and they start trading today, on July 23. Notably, it has been a volatile ride for ETH investors in 2024. Ethereum’s native token went from $2,140 earlier this year to as high as $4,091 in mid-March. Currently, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization trades at $3,525, waiting for the United States market to open. It marks a 25% rally in 15 days…
Whales are showing interest in the token amid increasing talks about spot Solana ETFs. It comes after Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) ETF approvals and launches, giving institutional players, like retail, access to the named cryptocurrencies.

They staked these holdings, suggesting interest…
After weeks of worrisome trading, things appear to have come to a head for the crypto markets on July 4 as the price of Bitcoin (BTC) and many other major coins and tokens fell precipitously. The downturn proved, by press time, sufficient to see the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies drop more than $130 billion within a single day from about $2.18 trillion to $2.05 trillion. Bitcoin, while risking a freefall as it struggles to hold on to a critical support level near $57,000, does not account for the entire drop as the total market cap of all other cryptocurrencies…
Total value locked on EigenLayer has dropped by 13% to $15.1 billion in the past 30 days, even though ether is trading at a similar level to June. Outflows can be attributed to the fickle nature of points farming and the limited returns on restaking protocols. Ether.fi has bucked the trend, experiencing growth in the period. Billions of dollars worth of ether (ETH) has been withdrawn from restaking protocols over the past month as the once trendy sector gets its first taste of the fickle nature of crypto investors. On June 25, ether (ETH) was trading at $3,300, a shade…
